Despite chart success with a number 5, two top twenty singles and a Top Of The Pops appearance Dean went on to become the Uk's most bankable remixer in the 90s and then currently one of the most credible producers around. In fact its fair to say that if you havent heard of at least one of Dean's production aliases, then you havent really been listening to house music.

Heres a small list: Finger Fest Inc, Dean Marriott, Dino 'Fingers' Ramirez, Freeze Frame.

The biggest development in Deans career came when he felt he had done all he could with the funky house sound hed been tagged with and became enthused with the New York tribal sound that was re-emerging in the late nineties. The D.Ramirez moniker was born, and his early releases have led to frenzy of signings and he is about to appear or has just been seen on labels such as Yoshitoshi, Junior, Underwater, Choo Choo, Phonetic, Thrust, Whoop!, Lot 49, Four:Twenty and Toolroom.

Aside to this Dean runs his own label Slave Recordings. Now up to the tenth release and with countless radio plays and DJ support, Slave has established itself as one of the most respected, Underground labels, and amazingly Dean also finds time to DJ all over the world with a residency at Sheffield's The Plug to fall back on in between his shows in the finest arenas the clubbing world has to offer.
